Javairo Dilrosun’s contract at Manchester City is expiring soon and Premier League giants Liverpool are keen to snatch him, as are Dortmund and RB Leipzig.

You will not need reminding that Manchester City are not short of attacking options.

Pep Guardiola can field Kevin De Bruyne, Leroy Sane, Bernardo Silva, David Silva and Raheem Sterling in the wide areas if he so pleases. No wonder, then, that the highly-rated Javairo Dilrosun is thinking about moving away from the Premier League champions-in-waiting when his contract expires at the end of this season.

According to O Jogo (8th March, page 14), the 19-year-old former Ajax winger will be a free agent in a few months’ time and there is no shortage of big European clubs willing to hand him the chance that he appears unlikely to get at City.

And Liverpool are at the front of the queue for a player who has been with City since 2014, along with Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig.

Liverpool have history when it comes to nabbing youngsters on a free from Premier League rivals, having raided Chelsea last summer for the striker Dominic Solanke.

Solanke, like so many other Anfield youngsters, has been given the odd opportunity by manager Jurgen Klopp this season so Dilrosun should have faith that he would at least be included in the first-team plans should he swap Manchester for Merseyside.

Then again, with the ‘fab three’ of Mo Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane creating arguably the most fearsome forward line in English football, it is not as if Dilrosun would walk into Liverpool’s XI.
